WatPhraSinghWoramahawihan is Chiang Mai's most revered temple. It is home to Phra Phutthasihing, Chiang Mai's most sacred, Chiang sean-style Buddha image. During the Songkran festival, every April 13-15th, Phra Phutthasihing is carried in a parade procession around town so locals can bath the image with scented water, which brings good luck according to a traditional belief. There are often many monks walking and praying around which offer good photo opportunities. Best time for this is around 4:30pm when the monks go to sing and pray. In term of food, there's Good souls Kitchen which is a nice restaurant not far.
